 Controlled Benefits
ME engines

The ME engine is characterised by

„„ Low SFOC and superior performance parameters thanks to variable, electronically controlled timing of fuel „„ Individually tailored operating modes available
injection and exhaust valves at any engine speed and load „„ Easy change of operating modes during operation
„„ Appropriate fuel injection pressure and rate shaping at any engine speed and load „„ Upgradable software over the lifetime of the engine
„„ Flexible emission characteristics with low NOX and smokeless operation „„ Fully integrated Alpha Cylinder Lubricators, with lower cylinder oil consumption
„„ Perfect engine balance with equalised thermal load in and between cylinders „„ Simplicity of mechanical system, using traditional, well-proven technologies
„„ Better acceleration in ahead and astern operation and crash stop situations „„ The ME engine is lighter than its mechanical counterpart
„„ Wider operating margins in terms of speed and power combinations „„ Unchanged high level of service for trouble-shooting and operation assistance
„„ Longer Time Between Overhauls „„ Available in a dual-fuel version, ME-GI
„„ Very low speed possible even for extended periods and super dead slow operation and manoeuvring „„ Mechanical parts, incl. combustion chamber, equal to the latest MC/MC-C engine design.

The ME Design
The ME engine design is based on the well-proven
successful MC series, which is the world’s best-selling
two-stroke engine family with more than 17,000 en-
gines in operation. Accumulated operating experience
ME at sea – simple and safe – makes the daily work uncomplicated. It is a simple
and long-term performance feedback from custom-
ers, together with our continuous development and
system and adjustments are very easy to perform. It is easy to balance the engine
